Intro: D G Cadd9 G

Verse 1:
D
Glistening grass from September rain
G 
Gray overpass full of neon names
    Cadd9             G
You drive Mmmm, eightyfive Mmmm
D
Gallatin Road and the Lakeside Beach
G 
Watching the game from your brother's Jeep
     Cadd9                 G
Your smile Mmmm, miles wide

Chorus:
           D            G 
And it was not an invitation
                     Cadd9
Should've kissed you anyway
                     G
Should've kissed you anyway
           D          G 
And it was not convenient, no
                    Cadd9
But your girlfriend was  away
                     G
Should've kissed you anyway, hey

Verse 2:
D
Shiny wood floors underneath my feet
G 
Disco ball makes everything look cheap
     Cadd9           G
Have fun  Mmmm, it's prom Mmmm
D
Wilted corsage dangles from my wrist
G 
Over his shoulder, I catch a glimpse
    Cadd9
And see  Mmmm
               G
You looking at me

Chorus:
           D            G 
And it was not an invitation
                      Cadd9
But as the fifty Cent song played
                     G
Should've kissed you anyway
           D          G 
And it was not convenient, no
                  Cadd9
Would've been the best mistake
                     G
Should've kissed you anyway, hey

Bridge:
Em           Cadd9                      G
  Don't make it   awkward in second period
           D                              Em
Might xxxx your ex off, lately we've been good
        Cadd9                            G      D
Staying friends is safe, doesn't mean you should
Em           Cadd9                      G
  Don't make it   awkward in second period
           D                              Em
Might xxxx your ex off, lately we've been good
        Cadd9                            G      D
Staying friends is safe, doesn't mean you should

Verse 3:
D
When I left school, I lost track of you
G 
G#igail called me with the bad news
    Cadd9                     G
Goodbye, and we'll never know why

Chorus:
       D            G 
It was not an invitation
                Cadd9
But I flew home anyway
             G
With so much left to say
       D          G 
It was not convenient, no
                Cadd9
But I whispered at   the grave
                     G
Should've kissed you anyway
               D            G 
Oh, and it was not an invitation
                     Cadd9
Should've kissed you anyway
                     G
Should've kissed you anyway, anyway
           D
And it was not
                    G 
My advice is always ruin the friendship
       Cadd9
Better that than regret it for all time
G                           D
 Should've kissed you anyway
                        G 
And my advice is always answer the question
       Cadd9
Better that than to ask it all your life
G                           D
 Should've kissed you anyway

Outro:
G                             Cadd9 G
   Should've kissed you anyway
